Okay, did some research. This isn't recommended for all monopodial orchids. If you have Angraecums, it is typically better just to leave them be. There are others, too. Certain vandas/vandaceous orchids never grow roots along the stem. Some species phals that are very slow growing or are not as hardy are also not good candidates. Before doing this to your orchid, a little research is always recommended. But, for a majority of monopodial orchids that vigorously grow roots along the stem and are tough, this works very well and is a good solution. Again, do research first and make the judgement based on the growth habit and hardiness of the orchid.
